Nadia and I drove to Colorado a while back

We stopped in Leadville, elevation ~10,000 feet.

We came to Leadville to climb Mt. Elbert, the highest peak in the Rocky Mountains of North America, also the tallest mountain in Colorado.

Leadville is in the distance, at the top of the picture.

It wasn't a technical climb, just a walk up the trail.

Up towards the top it really started looking like we were in the mountains!

The Sawatch Range.
